Klepperm Backyak

As anyone seen the new kayak by KLEPPER called BACKYAK. So far i have only seen the pre-production ones which are the prototypes on Kleppers German web site. It looks like an interesting "take apart" without wooden frames and a flexable skin. It should be easier to portage than the Aerius two as it goes into two large packs. They have made it into a "fun thing" as it can be made into two single seaters, a small catamaran with a sail or electric motor, there is no sail option when it is in it,s…See More

Enjoy.

Waterfalls on a SUP? Is it possible?

You have to choose your waterfalls very carefully when paddling a SUP.  You want the falls to be near vertical and not too tall.  The drop in these pictures is about 14 feet tall.

With these sliding drops it is very important to not use the skegs.  Either turn the board around backwards or choose a board with removable skegs.

worldkayak blogs: West Virginia surprise…

So after the T’ville Triple crown my plan was to drop Emily off in DC, pick up Dane and head to California. This plan quickly changed over dinner when the word got out that the New River Dries waves might be in. So we packed up the RV and hit the road. A not so quick little 11 hour drive brought us from Terriffville, New Enlgand to Fayettville, West Virginia.

Immersion Research: 2012 EU Ambassador contest Numero Siete: Ieuan Belshaw

A little more about myself… I’m Ieuan, a Welsh kayaking bum who is always super keen to go boating whenever with whoever. It’s a life style that I enjoy and it brings many small rewards. I love the sense of adventure, going out and hitting up new rivers and waterfalls, going on scouting missions to find such places.
